clothing: stripes

I bought a striped sailor shirt this weekend ($4! on clearance) to add to my growing collection of stripey tops & dresses. They're my closet's new version of polka dots (mild polka dot obsession in high school/college). Stripes are simple but so chic.

I think that the polka dots got out of style for a while before they came back but I don't really remember stripes not being fashionable! I love them and if they are vertical they even make us look slimmer :))
